Chapter 207: Commitment

Among the various religious systems of the Lane Empire, when it comes to doctrines, they naturally have their own merits, and there are often conflicts between them, and even religious wars will break out in serious cases.

It is not uncommon for some sects to fight over a point of view, or even to have God-given apostles appear to "reason."

But in some non-doctrinal aspects, the major denominations also have similarities.

For example, the system within the denomination and the names of various positions.

In terms of titles, the major sects are rigorous to the point of meticulousness.

Local religious buildings can only be called such and such a church, or some other name with a specific meaning.

And the "temple" suffix in the Temple of Justice that Nancy mentioned is not something that can be added casually.

Often, only the true birthplace of a religion qualifies for the temple suffix.

The birthplace here is not a general term for a broad region, but a specific region.

It is the place where miracles come, the place where the gods favor.

The first pope must have been born here.

"The temple of the Righteous Sect seems to be in the inland region of the Ryan Empire, right?"

"Of course, and it's a very long way from Demmingham, so I'm saying it's a long trip, and if you can get to a place in a day or two, you can escort you all the way?"

Nancy said as a matter of course, which made Donald, who was sitting across from her, speechless for a while.

He didn't speak, and Nancy didn't say anything, and after a while the latter went out very casually, and when he came back, he had an extra plate of dried fruit in his hand.

"What are you doing with bringing Julia to the Temple of Justice?"

When the contents of the dried fruit platter were eaten and only some dregs remained, Donald asked helplessly.

When he said this, it meant that he was actually thinking about taking this matter down.

There's no way, just like Nancy said before, Donald has met too many conditions, and now he is favored by Semir and others, and he still owes Nancy so many favors, which is not something he is willing to do for a long time.

"Since you agreed, there are some things that you are qualified to know, because we have no solution to the problem of the Holy Son, and this matter must be properly handled, once there is an accident, it may cause an extremely bad situation, so after a few of us discussed, I feel that the Righteous Sect is the best way to solve it, and bring the soul and body to the Temple of Justice separately and then merge them, and let the people of the Temple of Justice deal with it. ”

"Why are you so sure that the Righteous Sect will be able to solve this problem..... Have you checked it?"

Donald didn't understand how this conclusion came about.

"Of course not, if you ask them for verification, you will definitely have to send a letter, in case the news leaks along the way, who can guarantee that there will not be a second saint who will target it, just solving this now has paid such a big price, Demingham can't withstand the second destruction, not to mention that we can wait, the soul and body of this holy son can't wait. ”

In this era, long-distance information transmission still has to rely on letters, because there are still a considerable part of the Lane Empire in a relatively backward state of life, not to mention telephone lines, and even telegraphs may not be connected.

From Demingham to the Temple of Justice, even if it is to send a professional postman, it will take at least a few months to go back and forth, and then it will be too late for anything.

Before Donald could speak, Nancy continued.

"Think for yourself, if I were to force a bomb to you, would you take it? Uh, you really want it...... But you can also be regarded as a rewarding job, we don't plan to pay for the righteous sect, check in advance, what if the righteous church refuses to help, the Holy Son is a long-awaited secret weapon for some evil forces, but for us people, it is a hot potato, the righteous sect is not a subordinate department of the empire, if you want to deal with something of this level, you naturally need to pay a lot of price, rather than let them consider the gains and losses and delay time, it is better to send things directly to the door, and then they have to take care of it if they don't want to。 ”

The place where the Temple of Justice is located is certainly the faith area of the Righteous Sect.

Nancy and the others did very simply, the bomb was placed at the door of the Temple of Justice.

If they don't deal with it, they will be the first to bear the brunt.

"Isn't this a hooligan?"

No matter how Donald listened, he felt that there was an air of bandit logic in this plan.

"Donald, you don't think that this kind of thing can be put on the table and negotiated slowly, don't use this method, rely on official connections to contact, don't even think about it, so your task is very simple, I don't care what method you use, within a year, Julia will appear near the Temple of Justice, and you can't expose yourself as a government agent halfway, because this is a secret operation, and you also said, this is a hooligan's business, we are the Dmingham government, naturally we will not do this kind of thing. ”

Throwing the last raisin into her mouth, Nancy didn't hesitate to talk about it.

"I see...... Then I kind of get the idea. ”

What is it? What do you understand?

Donald didn't say a word, just vaguely.

Saying that he fully understands the situation, under Donald's drooping eyelids, his eyes are still deep, even a little dark.

This made his whole temperament become a little weird at this moment.

Donald sat clearly in his chair, but he always exuded a strange atmosphere.

It's as if he was wearing a black-and-gray robe when he used the Grimoire of Domination, making it difficult to look at him directly.

Nancy sat across from her, her eyes fixed on the wall clock.

She seemed to notice the change in Donald, but she didn't say anything.

As for Julia, because she couldn't understand the meaning of their words, she had already gone to the other side of the cabin, lying down at the window and looking at the sea.

It was her first time going to sea.

If nothing else, the sea will not be visible for the next few years.

When Donald looked up again, his eyes at Nancy returned to normal, only with a little more imperceptible vigilance and vigilance.

You must know that the relationship between Nancy and Donald has always been an ally rather than a friend, and it has never reached the level of complete mutual trust.

Admittedly, Donald owes Nancy a lot of things and favors.

But if the debt relationship between the debtor and the creditor can be turned into something that enhances friendship, what else do so many debt collectors do?

Nancy's words, the so-called problem of solving the Son's problem, or the logic of those robbers.

Donald may believe it, but he won't believe it all.

In other words, if he had enough time, he would think about it and think about the hidden meaning behind it.

However, the current government's anxiety is almost superficial.

They can't wait to get this thing out of the way or get it going.

Donald was the one who was chosen, and now even the only one.

If he doesn't agree, the government will "find a way" to get him to agree.

"Can I make some requests? Don't get me wrong, of course not to you, I owe you enough, and this task should be repaid, but the government's side..... Those high-class people have to tip their servants to buy food, and I don't get paid for this escort trip, right?"

Since you can't resist, then enjoy it, Donald agrees.

He certainly won't be able to figure out what special purpose lies behind this mission for a short time.

Then don't think about these things for a while, but think about something more realistic.

Isn't the government in a hurry to send people away?

Okay, the benefits are in place, and Donald just thinks it's a high-risk, high-reward mission.

Who hasn't had a hard time?

"Of course you can, you can open your mouth if you want, I can tell them on your behalf, but you took something, if the thing can't be done, the consequences will be very serious, those people are all human spirits, this mission, naturally it will not be just a verbal agreement." ”

The escort was in a way the most crucial part of the plan, and although Nancy believed in Donald's credibility, the others would have to have other insurance.

No empty promise is as real as a paper soul contract.

"One night's time, you can slowly think about your conditions, and tomorrow morning it is better to give me a list so as not to disturb your rest, goodbye. ”

Nancy got up, still with a plate of dried fruit in her hand, and left neatly.

Donald was left with Julia, who had returned.

"Leek, how could you get involved in such a thing?"

There are only two of them, and the title is naturally used to how to come.

"I don't know, it seems that this is the only reason why I survived, maybe the purpose of my life is to be able to participate in this project......"

At this time, Julia no longer has the strength she used to be in front of the Shelleys, and she doesn't have the indifference in front of Nancy as if nothing has happened.

With tears in his eyes, he didn't hang up, but looked at Donald a little stubbornly.

"Hey, I didn't cry when I took over the mission to escort you safely to the Temple of Justice, what do you have to be sad about, it's me who is difficult in this mission, and it's not you, you, just treat it as a long-distance trip, didn't you always complain to me that you didn't have time to go out to play, isn't it good to go out and have fun this time?"

With one hand on his left cheek, his right hand pinching Julia's face.

Finger emerged from Donald's coat and lay down on the edge of the table.

Staring at the girl who always wanted to hold it before.

"Hello Finger, you seem to be fat again...... Brother Donald, are you willing to protect me?"

Julia's face was a little better, and she sniffed twice, but a snot bubble came out.

Hurriedly wiped it with a red face.

"You're all about my reward, who else can I protect if I don't protect you?"

Donald looked at Julia, who was busy working next to him halfway through, and her mood suddenly fell again, pursed her lips, and suddenly said,

"Leek, speaking of which, you are a bit similar to my previous experience. ”

"What?"

Julia looked back and looked at Donald suspiciously.

"About a few months ago, like you, I couldn't help myself in everything, I had to look at people's faces, and many times I had to do things I didn't like, but I had to comfort myself in my heart, thinking that as long as I got through the difficulties in front of me, the future would definitely be very good. ”

Donald rarely shares with others what he encountered when he first came into the world.

The predicament at that time, now thinking about it, still makes his heart cold.

"Did you get through it?"

"What a little fool, if I can't get through it, how can I sit here and talk to you now, maybe, I've already become a fool who can't even speak, you wait......"

He got up from his chair and walked to the door, opened it, and shouted to the side,

"Stephanie, help me get some food and drink, get more. ”

"It must have been hard at that time. ”

By the time Donald sat back in her seat, Julia was sitting in Nancy's place, her chin resting on her folded arms, her fingers sliding back and forth along the curves of the table.

"Hard work is certain, if you want to say it, I was in a worse situation than you at that time, there was a group of people who wanted me to be a fool, there was a group of people who wanted me to die, and there was a group of people who wanted to cheat me out of things...... At least you don't have to worry about your life now, do you?"

From the current Donald's mouth, the purpose of those people sounds very straightforward, and the danger is not explained in detail, but even so, to Julia's ears, she still shrank her head in fear.

"And then?"

Julia's attention was all attracted by Zhu Jue, and her previous mood immediately improved.

After all, he is still a child, and bad emotions come and go quickly.

"Those who want to make me a fool should have survived, she was my nominal closest person at that time, and now, she should hate me to death...... It's normal, after all, before that, I hated her just as much, and I could feel it. ”

"Those who want me to die, they belong to a cult, and I solved it by killing people with a knife, and I guess there is no one left. ”

"And the last two people who wanted to deceive me were discovered by me in advance, and the consequences were similar to those of the cult. ”

As he spoke, Donald seemed to have the scene of the last game in front of his eyes.

Thinking about it now, it ended in the church of the Righteous Sect at that time, but I didn't expect it to be related to the Righteous Sect again this time.

Julia opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, and happened to see Stephanie walking in with a large plate, followed by Lilo, so she fell into silence a little shyly.

"Let me introduce you, this is my girlfriend, Stephanie Quake, this is my cousin Lilo Grant, she is more afraid of life than you, so she doesn't usually talk much, and the reason why I introduced them to you is because they will come with us in the future. ”

The identity of a high-level undead is really inconvenient to say, and Donald can only introduce it with the excuse he prepared before.

"Let's go, Donald, what happened, I felt something was wrong when you stayed before......"

Stephanie heard Donald's words, and leaned over a little nervously and asked in a low voice.

"I'll tell you in detail when things are settled, and all I can say now is that we may have another long trip. ”

Donald certainly couldn't have walked alone and took Julia on the road.

Although he has not been in Dmingham for a long time, he is now a bit of a team.
